Naturopathic Doctor & Lactation Consultant
Laura's passion for global health, and maternal and newborn care led her down her path to become a Naturopathic Doctor and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). She studied Naturopathic Medicine at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto. It was during that time she was introduced to Dr. Jack Newman's International Breastfeeding Centre and the amazing work they do to help families achieve their breastfeeding goals. Inspired, she decided to enrol and complete the necessary steps to become an IBCLC.
Laura's clinical focus in her private practice is with parents in the postpartum period, guiding them with feeding support, and promoting infant mental health. She also works globally to train health workers in lactation to build their capacity to support new families in their communities.
She currently spends her time between Ontario and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
